Bolling to run for re-election?

JR Hoeft | March 24, 2008 | Comments (2)

WRVA is reporting that Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, who is scheduled to make a major announcement on the 2009 races at 1:30 p.m., is going to announce he is running for lieutenant governor — NOT GOVERNOR — in 2009.

~~This almost assures us that Allen is running for governor again, despite what he might have said to the contrary. Will we see an Allen v. McDonnell primary?~~

Never mind. More later.

Well, well, well… Speculation running rampant…

With about an hour to go before Lt. Gov. Bolling is scheduled to make a “major announcement” (planned for 1:30pm today), WRVA is reporting that it probably won’t be that he’s running for Governor in 2009… Now that’s very interesting… The times…

About

Bearing Drift was established in 2004. The name comes from the relative motion of objects at sea. If there is no bearing drift, and the distance between you and the object is closing, there will be a collision; therefore, action must be taken.

Most navigation rules state that the best course of action with constant bearing and decreasing range is to alter one's course to starboard - the right! Therefore, most of us at Bearing Drift ascribe to this rule - if it looks like the ship-of-state is going to wreck, move right; you can't go wrong!!!
